-webkit-gradient issue

[fredburger]

Input (Bootstrap):

.carousel-control.left {
  background-image: -webkit-gradient(linear, 0 top, 100% top, from(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5)), to(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0001)));
  background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(left, color-stop(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) 0), color-stop(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0001) 100%));
  background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(left, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) 0, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0001) 100%);
  background-image: linear-gradient(to right, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) 0, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0001) 100%);
  background-repeat: repeat-x;
  filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr='#80000000', endColorstr='#00000000', GradientType=1);
}

Output (note multiple -webkit-*):

.carousel-control.left {
  background-image: -webkit-gradient(linear, 0 top, 100% top, from(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5)), to(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0001)));
  background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(left, color-stop(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) 0), color-stop(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0001) 100%));
  background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(left, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) 0, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0001) 100%);
  background-image: -webkit-gradient(linear, top left, top right, from(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5)), to(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0001)));
  background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(left, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) 0, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0001) 100%);
  background-image: -o-linear-gradient(left, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) 0, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0001) 100%);
  background-image: linear-gradient(to right, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) 0, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0001) 100%);
  background-repeat: repeat-x;
  filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr='#80000000', endColorstr='#00000000', GradientType=1);
}

The main idea behind Autoprefixer is to write CSS without prefixes by latest W3C specs. So, work with legacy code is not prior high priority. I will fix it, but not soon :).

But, your PR is always welcome :).

Hm, ok. But it's an interesting feature to realign precompiled CSS with selected browser versions.

Anyway, thanks for sharing your great work with Autoprefixer!

Autoprefixer add double -webkit-gradient because first prefix use different direction -webkit-gradient(linear, 0 top, 100% top. I think to close this issue, because fix will be bad for code climate :).

@ai Would you consider reopening this issue? Now that Autoprefixer is part of Bootstrap's build process, we're running into this bug.

@cvrebert bug is only with bigger, but working code?

We now believe it was a bug on our side. Sorry for the noise. Thanks for such a great tool!
